What I mean by "strong examples" are ones that actually take advantage of Q's general tree rewriting capabilities. The examples in the manual and in the /usr/local/share/examples directory are almost entirely functional, and would work just as well in ML with occasional spelling adjustments. In attempting to explain Q to Scheme programmers, I'm constantly running up against this lack of compelling examples of what makes Q essentially unique. Toy examples about a(b(x)) = c(x) and so on do not cut it. Can anyone help? -- John Cowan co...@cc... http://www.ccil.org/~cowan Humpty Dump Dublin squeaks through his norse Humpty Dump Dublin hath a horrible vorse But for all his kinks English / And his irismanx brogues Humpty Dump Dublin's grandada of all rogues. --Cousin James |
